School holidays are all about spending time together, but finding a luxury family staycation that offers real value isn’t always easy. Hotel stays are one thing, but once you add brunch, breakfast, entertainment and experiences, the total can quickly become far more than expected.
That’s what makes the latest Weekend Club by SECRET at Bab Al Qasr Hotel worth knowing about.
Taking place on 25 and 26 July, this curated weekend has been designed to take the planning out of a family escape. For AED 699 net, a family of four (two adults and up to two children under 12) can enjoy an overnight stay at one of Abu Dhabi’s most iconic five-star hotels.
The package includes a premium brunch, breakfast, live entertainment, wellness experiences, kids’ activities, and a relaxed itinerary that lets you simply arrive and enjoy the weekend.
More Than Just A Hotel Stay
The difference with this experience is that the weekend begins before you collect your room key. From 10 am on Saturday, guests are welcomed with coffee, pastries, and welcome drinks before easing into a morning of live entertainment and complimentary partner experiences, including kids’ activities, massages, and salon treatments.
Instead of spending the first few hours waiting to check in, families are already settling into the weekend together as the atmosphere buzzes. It’s an easy transition from the pace of the working week into something more enjoyable.
The Weekend’s Centrepiece
By early afternoon, the experience moves to Artisan Kitchen, where Bab Al Qasr’s Signature Brunch takes over from 1 pm to 4 pm.
Expect generous international cuisine, house beverages, live entertainment, and the leisurely afternoon Bab Al Qasr’s brunch is known for. With three hours of exquisite food, drinks and live entertainment, brunch is where everyone can settle in and properly enjoy the weekend together.
The Celebrations Continue
Most brunches finish when lunch is over. This one doesn’t. From 4.30 pm, adults can continue the celebrations at Rosé Lounge Bar, where The Weekend Club After-Brunch Party keeps the energy going with a live DJ, entertainment and five complimentary drinks included for every adult.
While the after-party is reserved for adults, families can continue enjoying everything else the hotel has to offer before regrouping later in the evening. Guests can also take advantage of 30% off dining across Bab Al Qasr’s restaurants and in-room dining from 7 pm onwards.
A Slower Sunday
There’s no need to rush home the next morning. Breakfast is served at Artisan Kitchen, followed by an optional sunrise wellness session featuring beach yoga, guided stretching, and refreshing smoothies for those who want to start the day on a calmer note.
With a 2 pm late checkout, there’s plenty of time to enjoy the resort at your own pace before heading home, making the weekend feel that little bit longer.
